out of here!

Really?

Everybody's getting in their car

and we're getting out of here.

- Did you find someone?

- Are they dead?

No, nothing like that.

Dude, there's no animals.

There are no animals,

no birds -

- not even a f***ing fly,

no pupae.

It's time to bust out

of Dodge, man.

That's why it's been so quiet.

Alex, Alex, come on, man,

where are you gonna go?

Um, anywhere but here?

You have no gas,

your car's on fumes.

Well, then I'm gonna f***ing find

out how far fumes will get me.

Because I'm not spending any more time

in this bad f***ing Twilight Zone -

- camp blood deathtrap

of a weekend getaway!

Now f*** off!

Please, baby, please,

baby, please, baby?

Oh-ho-ho!

Good bye.

Come on! Goddamn it!

So, I guess that's how far

fumes will take ya'.

What, you think this is

funny, motherf***er?

- It's f***ing funny?

- Hey, hey, come on, come on.

All right, all right,

everybody is freaked out enough.

Okay, I'm on edge, let it go.

And you can cut the sh*t.

Okay, sorry.

All right, so we just need to

figure this sh*t out, okay?

Claire you have the most fuel-efficient car,

how much gas do you have left?

Maybe an eighth of a tank, but

it's small, it could fit four tops.

I'll ride in the f***ing trunk.

Okay, all right.

Jack?

It's on empty, I have two

gallons, that's 40 miles tops.

Hey, what about getting in the gas pump?

We could break into that, we could

pull that sh*t up with buckets or something.

- Crap, I don't know.

- Pumps don't work like that.

The gas is in a tank under the

ground, under the concrete -

- without the pump's pulling it

up, it's inaccessible.

F***!

Wait, however -

- we could take the gas from all

the cars, put it in one tank, all right -

- it might not be much, but it might

be enough to get us away from here.

- You mean, like siphon the gas?

- Yes, from our four cars and five or six that are sitting here.

Well, could everyone fit

into Jack's car?

If the girls sit on the guys'

laps, maybe.

- Okay, so it'll be uncomfortable.

- I don't think we should go anywhere.

- What? Are you...

- I don't think it's a good idea.

- Are you f***ing kidding me?

- We have no idea what's going on.

How do we know that whatever happened

here hasn't already passed through?

Ah, I'll take that risk.

Well, maybe I'm not willing

to take that risk, Alex.

Look, look, Jack, the animals all

decided that whatever happened here -

- was bad, and they decided

to leave.

You know, I like to think I'm

smarter than a f***ing squirrel.

I get the message. Get out!

You know what, I don't want to run out of

gas another 100 miles down the road -

- in the middle of the night, with ten

people and no f***ing idea where we are!

At least here we have food and

water and shelter.

Maybe we can call for help.

Jack's right.

There's probably a phone inside.

There is probably

a phone inside.

So can we please,

please just cool our jets -

- and really think about what

we're gonna do next -

- before we make this

situation any worse?

Please. Just relax.

- Okay?

- Okay, yeah.

Yes, fine, yes. Yes.

Okay. Okay.

Tracy, did you see a phone...

Trace?

Tracy!?

She was just here.

- She came back with me, right?

- Yes.

Did anybody see her go anywhere?

- I didn't.

- Maybe she went to the bathroom.

She wouldn't go to the bathroom

without saying something to somebody.

- Tracy!

- We'll go look for her.

Let's find a can and a hose and

get the fuel out of these cars.

How are we doing?

Tastes like sh*t.

Yeah, I'll get you mouthwash

later, but how much gas we got?

- Not enough.

- F***! Really?

Did you find the gas key?

It would help if I knew

what it looked like.

Well, the car by the pumps

is empty, so is yours.

Of the cars here, I got maybe

two and a half gallons combined.

They put it all in Jack's car. Just gonna

have to see how much I can get out of Noah's.

Any luck finding Tracy?

No.

How about a phone?

No one's found one yet.

They have to have a f***ing phone,

the have an internet site for Christ's sake.

Goddamn it!

Okay, look, even if Noah's car

has four gallons in it -

- that still leaves us

less than half a tank -

- which gets us about halfway

back, and then we're done.

So what do you want to do?

You want to stay here?

No!

But I'm not so sure I want

to be out there, either.

What if it's just some crazy guy thats

running around, killing people?

- You think it's a crazy guy?

- I don't know.

Well, if it's a crazy guy, it's the cleanest,

quietest crazy guy I've ever seen -

- I haven't seen any blood,

no sign of struggle.

Yeah, I know.

I wish it was a crazy guy, because

I can f*** up a crazy guy.

But I don't think that's what it is.

Sam, I need to know you're with me.

I'm with you.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- What do you think of Noah?

- Dude, he's creepy as f***.

- Weird.

- Right?

Yeah.

Any luck, Jack?

No, nothing.

He's gone!

What's wrong? What's wrong?

Look at me, look at me.

- Who's gone?

- Noah.

We were just walking behind the

house, and calling for Tracy -

- and I just took my eyes

off him for a second.

- He's gone.

- No one else was there when it happened.

F***, okay,

everybody inside, okay?

- Inside? Dude, we gotta go.

- Inside, let's not bullshit.

Look, Jack, man, we gotta leave.

- Not f***ing now!

- Jack, we need to go!

Goddamn it! I'm not f***ing

leaving without Tracy, all right!

All right.

- Do you f***ing hear me!

- Yeah!

Yeah, yeah okay. Okay.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry

- Okay. It's okay.

- So damn sorry.

- Okay, all right, come on, we're going inside.

Okay, we're going inside.

Everybody inside, let's go.

- I just need a minute, okay?

- Yeah.

Okay, we obviously

have a situation here.

That may be the single biggest

understatement I've ever heard.

- Lucas!

- Dude, I'm with him on this one.

Okay, so what do we know?

We know that it looks as if

everyone that was here is now gone.

- They all left in a hurry.

- Yes, good. Yeah.

We know that all

the animals have gone -

- and that it's way hotter at this

time of year than it should be.

So, what can cause all that?

What can make everything

disappear, including the insects?

Look, a poisonous gas cloud,

a chemical spill...

No, there'd be dead bodies

all over the place -

- there'd be insects and birds

and critters everywhere.

Not necessarily.

I mean, sometimes, you know, when birds sense

something bad is coming, like an earthquake.

You know, maybe whatever happened here, they

figured it out ahead of time and took off.

Okay, that's possible, yeah.

Yeah, like they ran ahead of it,

like in a forest fire or something.

Okay, look, if it was something

man-made, like a poisonous gas cloud -

- then that would explain why everyone

who was here left in such a hurry.

I mean, it was an emergency

and they were evacuated.

So Noah and Tracy were evacuated, Claire?

That's what you think?

Look, I know everyone's upset, but I

really think we need to get out of here.
